IM Unique joins EquityPilot to scale in-house innerwear manufacturing
India & Dubai, UAE — Jan 24, 2026
Consumers continue to prioritize comfort, consistent fit and affordable pricing when buying men’s innerwear and daily basics. At the same time, brands and retailers seek reliable, local manufacturing partners that deliver consistent sizing and fast fulfillment for D2C, B2C and B2B channels. IM Unique addresses both sides of this market tension by combining in-house production control with tested sizing and eco-conscious materials.
What the Startup Delivers?
IM Unique (NGUP GLOBAL PRIVATE LIMITED) manufactures men’s innerwear briefs, trunks, boxers, vests and basic apparel such as t-shirts, shorts and loungewear. The company operates a vertically integrated production facility that manages design, cutting, stitching, finishing and packing under one roof. This control enables consistent fit, quality and fast speed-to-market, while supporting private-label manufacturing and quick-commerce distribution.
Why Now?
E-commerce and quick-commerce growth, rising preference for domestic production, and demand for affordable premium-feel basics make now a strategic inflection point. IM Unique’s emphasis on size-tested products and an in-house supply chain directly addresses customer complaints about inconsistent sizing and imported premium pricing. The startup’s move to increase eco-friendly fabric adoption also aligns with growing customer awareness of sustainability in apparel.
Program Plan (first 30–60 days)
Through EquityPilot, IM Unique will work with FasterCapital on: - Prioritizing production upgrades and rapid SKU development for quick-commerce readiness. - Strengthening marketplace listings and D2C site UX to improve conversion and repeat purchase. - Establishing execution milestones for scaling workforce and machinery to meet B2B and retail requirements. FasterCapital’s support will be execution-focused; EquityPilot does not guarantee funding but aims to sharpen go-to-market and operational milestones.
